workaholic at 2 in the morning
November 17, 2007im up my elbows with stress. no im not complaining…not at all. and no im not even trying to be sarcastic. honest.
a week ago, i signed a contract to be a trainer. a Contact Center Industry Skills trainer to be exact.
a week after that, i was offered a marketing position. same company. i had second thoughts…but opportunities like this don't come knocking on my door everyday. inside me i really wanted to teach. but the stars of the universe aligned themselves in a way that allowed me another option. and what an option it is. because if i don't suck or do anything damaging after 6 months, i might find myself on top of an organizational chart in that department.
i accepted the position. then i faced a storm.
the company im in now needs some serious PR overhaul. its not that its in danger of closing or something similar to that…its target market/s is everywhere, actually not difficult to grasp on. let's just say, IT has a little difficulty grasping its target market/s…its like IT just needs some good rehabilitation to get it back on its feet…
i knew that my bumming days are way, waaaayyy history when for a week straight, i can't get myslef to sleep without fighting my brain for it to shut down.
marketing is not at all glamorous…there's nothing fancy and shimmery about it…
but right now, i want to stab myself because im about to admit that even if im slowly drowning in paperwork and client numbers and schedules and follow-up this & that…i still find myself enthusiastic about it…
i haven't cooked a decent meal for my Be and my bro for almost 2 weeks…hell i haven't cooked anything for them for almost 2 weeks…
as of 30 minutes ago, ive been informed that the new corporate logo i wanted to present to the big boss tomorrow is good for presentation in the morning…
yey…
one down, a kadillion more to go on my checklist.

on a lighter note…
crap i can't think of anything…
but everything's cool…im still alive, that's what's important…
and yeah, isn't studying company sales trend and updating marketing plans every hour super exciting?
i bet.

question: do you think i need to change my blog lay out again? just thinking. i think too much nowadays.

as for your layout, anything goes. i change at least twice a week. a perfect layout is like looking for the perfect boyfriend. close to impossible

Oh my. Good luck with work! I hope the presentation went extremely well.
As for the layout, well summer is over. Maybe you can opt for winter inspired layout? (kahit walang winter dito. lol)
